Raclette Sandwich

I found this guy making these sandwiches on a rainy day in london, it made all the difference! :)

"Raclette is a semi-firm, cow's milk cheese - most commonly used for melting. Raclette is also a dish indigenous to parts of Switzerland and the Savoie region of France. The Raclette cheese round is heated, either in front of a fire or by a special machine, then scraped onto diners' plates; the term raclette derives from the French word racler, meaning "to scrape". Traditionally, it is accompanied by small firm potatoes (Bintje, Charlotte or Raclette varieties), gherkins, pickeled onions, and dried meat. 

A modern way of serving raclette involves an electric table-top grill with small pans, known as coupelles, to heat slices of raclette cheese in. Generally the grill is surmounted by a hot plate or griddle". (wikipedia)
